Thread: Need Help With Fish-tank !!

Hi all,
just upgraded our 1 gallon Spongebob aquarium with something a little easier (so I hope) to maintain.
I ended up getting a 'Krislin' 29 gallon tank. It's 30w x 12d x 18h.
Here's my question/ concern:
After ensuring that everything is level/ set up properly I filled the tank.
I then noticed that the long glass side is bowed out. Upon holding a straight-edge across the glass I will get about 1/4" gap on each end if the edge rests on the middle.
Is this normal?
Should I worry about finding the contents on my floor after some time?
Does anybody else have similiar experiences?
What would you do?

Prabably a result of something Clinton did while in office. I wouldn't take any chances, you'd better return it.

That's odd, no bowing for anybody?
It's not leaking (yet), the whole thing is full of plants and fish.
I'd hate to make them live in a bucket until everything is set up again.
Had a chance to quiz the store-owner, she thinks its perfectly normal (of course).
Not sure what I'll do ..........

i just took a square to mine and found right under 1/8'' of expansion total, i checked it out with my local expert and we checked out his too, right about the same as mine is so i now believe it's normal. I looked and on 55 and up tanks, there is a stretcher in the middle so that helps with it's rigidity.

I used to breed african cichlid's (rare species, sometimes more than $250 a pair)... I got carried away with the hobby and had to get rid of everything.... at the end I had over 70 tanks and vats. What a headache!, and what a garage sale that was.
